Primal Sweet Potato Champ
A primal twist on a classic Irish dish, this Sweet Potato Champ is a rich, creamy, and deeply satisfying side that pairs perfectly with roasted meats, grilled fish, or hearty stews. Made with white sweet potatoes (or cauliflower for a lower-carb option), it's packed with nutrients while delivering the same comforting, buttery texture of traditional mashed potatoes.
Ingredient Benefits
✔ White Sweet Potatoes – A primal-friendly carbohydrate rich in fiber, vitamin C, and potassium, offering a slightly nutty and sweet flavor without spiking blood sugar as quickly as regular potatoes.
✔ Green Onions – Add a mild, fresh onion flavor while providing antioxidants, vitamins A and C, and sulfur compounds that support detoxification.
✔ Whole Milk, Heavy Cream, or Coconut Milk – Contributes to the creamy texture and adds healthy fats for sustained energy and satiety. Coconut milk is a great dairy-free option rich in medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) for metabolism support.
✔ Butter or Coconut Oil – Grass-fed butter is a great source of butyrate, CLA, and fat-soluble vitamins, while coconut oil adds a dairy-free, slightly sweet richness with anti-inflammatory properties.
✔ Sea Salt & Black Pepper – Enhances the flavor while providing essential minerals for electrolyte balance.
